Reading that this guy was the only reporter assigned, and interpreting that to mean he was the only one allowed to be there

Reading that the man's employer says "a member of Biden’s advance team consigned him to a storage closet — and then stood outside the door to make sure he didn’t walk out without permission" and drawing the conclusion that his story is that he was falsely imprisoned

I certainly haven't read him say anything like "I could've left anytime I felt like it, I just didn't give a hoot."

Oh, wait, I get it! You're too much of a coward to come out and accuse me of being a hack, so you just imply it. Right on.

Biden spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander, responding to coverage of that account, said in a written statement Sunday that the decision to hold Powers there was a "mistake" and that the reporter has accepted her "unequivocal apology." The apology was made shortly after the fundraiser.

Biden spokesperson admits it happened, and apologizes... nothing to see here liberals, right? Nothing happened. The guy made it up.

She explained that "hold rooms" are typically provided for pool reporters covering the vice president when he speaks at private homes. In this case, Biden was speaking at the home of a wealthy developer and the reporter was told to wait in a storage closet -- which Alexander said contained open space, as well as a table and chair where the reporter could work. She said the space was chosen because of its "close proximity" to the room where Biden was speaking.
